🧠Companion Cheat Sheet

Stop guessing. Start asking.

If price is moving fast ask:
→ Who is driving this move?
→ New positions or just liquidations?

If you’re unsure about direction ask:
→ Who is in control right now?
→ Buyers or sellers actually winning?

If you see a breakout ask:
→ Is this continuation or a trap?
→ Are positions building…or getting squeezed?

If you want better entries ask:
→ Where are the liquidation clusters?
→ Where is price likely to move next?

If a trade looks too obvious ask:
→ Who gets trapped if this goes the other way?
→ That’s usually the better trade.

Most traders look at candles.
Better traders look at positioning.
The best ones…just ask Companion. 🚀

Most people read bar stats backwards.

They look for opposite aggression and call it a reversal. That’s not how it works.

Here’s how to interpret it properly 👇

[MMT @MMT_Official_]

Ever notice how markets sometimes reach range highs with positive delta, yet nothing really follows through?

Footprint Summary often tells that story first. Aggressive buying shows up, but price struggles to accept higher. Similar to VRVP, you can now do the same with footprint granularity and that contrast is worth paying attention to.

What do you usually look for next in that situation?

This will change how you read orderflow forever!

[MMT @MMT_Official_]

One of the underrated edges in trading is layout clarity.

When structure, flow, and context live in one view, decisions get simpler. No tab hopping. No stitching ideas together in your head.

Build the view that matches how you think.

Bucketed CVD Cheatsheet:

Don't look at CVD as one line.
That already hides a lot of information.

Bucketed CVD breaks volume down by order size.
It lets you see which size is actually driving the move: small, medium, or large participants.

Now add aggregation.

By stacking spot, perpetuals, and inverse markets side by side, you can see who is really pushing price:
- All buckets aligned across markets → broad participation, real interest
- Only small sizes moving → likely retail-driven noise
- Perps diverging from spot → leverage doing the work, not spot demand

When everything is in sync, moves tend to follow through.

When they’re not, reactions fade fast.

Weekly review ✅
This one played out clean.
Live notifications on every trade, major moves shared in real time, execution exactly as planned.

Not every week looks like this. Zero-loss weeks are the exception, not the rule.

That’s why we step back now, touch some grass, and reset.

Grateful for the price action and the focus inside MMT Academy this week.

Good morning sunshines ☀️

We got squeezed into the Panama Canal, stuck right behind massive tankers, no room, no speed, just pressure building.

Markets work very similarly.
Bitcoin’s been compressing and patience tested.

If pressure releases, some longs might feel that squeeze.

Still waiting for confirmation, no rush.
But aware of what happens if those longs are to weak.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to everyone who put their trust in us 🤍

To all of you who joined the academy and helped turn it into what it is today, a real family - thank you. The support, the conversations, the grind, and the shared wins made this place something truly special.

With awesome colleagues at MMT, an epic new trading terminal, and some major updates along the way, this has truly been an unforgettable ride.

Sailing from Chile all the way up to Canada, buying a house on the lake and making a ton of new friends along the way. None of it would feel the same without the people around us.

Grateful for the journey and excited for what’s next.
Wishing you and your loved ones calm markets, clear minds, and a strong start to the new year.

If you could put one feature or wish underneath it, what would it be?

Footprint Cluster vs Footprint Profile

Same data. Different questions. Different edge.
Most traders confuse these two and end up using neither correctly.

Let’s fix that 👇🧵

Good morning Sunshine ⚓️☀️

Beautiful sunrise here and an equally beautiful little reminder on the charts.

We had some heavy limit orders stacked above price for a while.
They never filled…but the reaction was clean regardless.
What’s fascinating is how they were sitting there for ages, then pulled a minute before, only to be placed higher shortly after.
Classic games. Classic intent.
And if you’re watching closely, it tells you everything you need to know.

Coffee, charts, sunrise, and a market that’s already trying to show its hand.

Let’s see where they want to take it today. ⚡️
